STARTING OFF AS FRESH GRADUATE

The first-most thing that comes to mind after graduation from a four year degree programme as we have it here in Ghana, is to get a job that can  help earn a living and start life as an independent person.
However, these expectations get disappointed. We are not able to secure those jobs as expected. We get the opportunity to attend interviews but miss the privilege of getting that dream job. T
his may continue for a long while. What do you do in such a situation? Must you still wait for that green-light for that dream job or must you do something in between that?
How must you start off as a fresh graduate in the face of global economic challenges which is characterized by high rates and down-sizing? Your moment of joblessness must not be your moment of idleness. You ought to find something doing.  You could take up a course and study to built your knowledge base or you could engage yourself in a petty business or get a below-qualification job to upgrade your skills and experiences. No matter what, you must find something worthwhile to engage in.
